Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle has been a champion for Wisconsin veterans – cutting their taxes, signing legislation to protect the dignity of families mourning the loss of a soldier, and provided tuition free education for veterans, and surviving spouses and children of those brave men and women who are killed in the line of duty.
